This gun being near 100 years old and still retain over 50% original case color is remarkable. It handles well and is tight on face with excellent bores. The bores are bright and shine. There is a small amount of rust pitting from the result of poor storage just behind the muzzle of the left barrel. See picture. It is not of huge consequence and not at all a safety issue but have lowered the price to compensate. Overall, this gun is in great condition, obviously not having seen much use afield.
*Company records show this fine gun dates from 1934, made by Webley & Scott, sold to a Colonel Firth.
*The chokes are perfect for upland bird hunting!
*Note the excellent choking for upland birds which I will guarantee will put more birds in your bag! *** Note: To see this gun with high resolution photos and a zoom-in feature, go to the vintagedoubles main site and search for the gun ID: 4794 or browse the main site to see our full gun collection.
